History of Science

Research
Tentative dissertation title: "Engineering a Dictatorship: How Science, Technology and the State transformed the Spanish Landscape in the early years of Franco’s rule (1939-1959)." Hopefully, this will be a revision of early Francoist Spain from the point of view of the history of science and technology. It includes economic and enviromental history. I am also very interested in the relations between history and philosophy, not least philosophy of science.
